Blue Knight Construction

Blue Knight Construction builds wood patio covers and pergolas in Huntington Beach and repairs dry rot and termite damage on existing structures. The company also builds decks and balconies. Its crews use exterior framing methods rather than interior framing methods, and they pre-paint all lumber, including saw cuts, with metal coping on headers and rafters so water doesn't soak into wood connections. The business has operated since 1984 under California contractor license 452151.

The company recommends wood over aluminum, and says a wood patio cover or pergola can last 30 to 40 years with paint on the top only every 8 to 10 years. Homeowners can check the license number with the California Contractors State License Board before hiring. The office is in Huntington Beach, and the company says its work focuses on the town.
